We go through a company called coolibar online. I'm not sure where on island to recommend you to though.

Awesome! Thank you!

We're traveling next month with our 7 month old to STJ. We cloth diaper at home but I know water conservation is an issue on island. Would it be better to bring disposables for our week vacation? We'll be staying at the Westin. TIA!

I will say that Venice has a great homemade ice cream shop on 41 and an amazing little mom and pop donut shop in a strip mall on the east side on 41. I'm all about the treats if you can't tell!

I liked Marco Island. It was fun to rent a pontoon for the day and play on the water. Not as snobby or crowded as Naples.

We like it wroth a good root beer or cream soda

I hear wonderful things about Amalie but they were booked when we went down. So we used Budget, the Jeep was new and clean and worked well for the week we had it on STJ. I've heard people have had bad experiences with them but we didn't encounter any of them.

Cruzan Black Strap is our favorite sipper!

We always try to use Delta first whenever we fly

I've been lucky to winter in FL from '89-'04, alligators normally aren't a problem accept during breeding season in April. Then they move out and about and can get more aggressive.

I tell everyone about this product we use called Scrubs Sun Skeeter. It's a wipe that contains deet but we're not saturating our skin with it. It seems to be just enough to be effective for 4-8 hours and after lightly coating exposed areas we stick the used wipe in our pockets, hat band, or edge of ...

I was recommended to a company called Sport Eyes on the internet. They seem to have decent prices and a good selection. I'm planning to place my order with them in the near future.

I've been part of a couple family companies all my life and know many small business owners. Every single one of them has black lists. It took me personally a long time to learn that there are dishonest people in the world and you shouldn't be disillusioned, everyone runs into them no matter what ty...

We've had good luck with Avis. I've seen some bad reviews on them but our Jeep was clean, great condition, and worked fine for our 8 day trip. We took it down every back road we could fine inbetween snorkel runs. Absolutely no problems with pick up or turn in. The staff was courteous if not overly f...
